Nursing at Baxter Regional Medical Center (BRMC) commits to promote the
health and wellness of the individuals in the community we serve. To that
end, nursing is on a Journey to Excellence and welcomes the challenge
to improve nursing care and treatment, exceed the patient’s service
expectations, and produce outstanding nursing clinical outcomes related
to national benchmarks.
Nursing at BRMC is built upon sound nursing theory and research. The Nursing Model depicts the integration of our nursing Theory of Caring and our commitment to practice. BRMC nursing leverages our care delivery systems to ensure our practice is autonomous, collaborative, Interprofessional, and relationship – based with our focus on Patient/Family Centered Care. All decisions, plans, and approaches solicit the voice of our key customer – the patient. When making changes, we take into account the preference and impact of care on the patient first, with the impact on staff and physicians as important partners. Through the lens of the patient’s well-being, safety, and choice we determine what, how, when, and why we do what we do.
Nursing at BRMC strives to innovate and breakthrough barriers that prevent or compromise best practices. Nurses commit to team work, trust building and trustworthiness, and a forward thinking search for and discovery of yet unknown possibilities of best practice. Our greatest imperative is to serve.
